A painter allegedly approached a beauty salon in Karama, Dubai and as a woman staffer opened the door, he snatched the gold bracelet that she was wearing and fled. The snatcher knew that the victim’s boss would not be in the salon at that time.
On February 5 at around 10am, AJ, 44, Filipina, hairdresser, was in the salon alone when MA knocked at the door.
“When I opened the door, MA asked me about my boss and when I told him that she is not in, he snatched the gold bracelet that I was wearing and ran away. I informed my boss who lodged a complaint with the police,” the victim told investigators.
According to the records, MA, 41, was assigned by the salon’s owner to do some maintenance work. However, a couple of days after he started working, a dispute started and he was asked not to continue the work.
“He worked in a maintenance company nearby,” the salon’s owner told police.
After about 15 minutes, the accused came to his employer’s office and he was arrested.MA admitted to his crime.
The court will give its sentence on April 14.
